Health and Safety

Legislation

“A construction company has been prosecuted for breaching health and safety failings that endangered the lives of workers and residents ---------- They were prosecuted by the Health and Safety Executive and fined a total of £12,000, with costs of £1,494 after pleading guilty to offences under Regulation 28(1), 29(1), and 29(2) of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007”.

According to HSE, although only 5 per cent of British employees work in the construction industry, it accounts for 31 per cent of fatal injuries to employees and 10 per cent of reported major/specified injuries.

The Health and Safety at Work ACT - 1974. the use of the word ACT in the title means it is Statute Law. Therefore Employers and Employees, subcontractors and Franchises MUST comply.

Environmental

New sentencing guidelines came into force Tuesday 1 July 2014, increasing

the levels of fine likely to be imposed on those committing an

environmental crime.

Sentences for environmental offences were historically determined using a

combination of sentencing principles, related guidelines and preceding

court decisions.

The range of fines has been increased to reflect an offender's ability to pay.

The aim is to ensure fines have a real economic impact and provide a

stronger deterrent from re-offending.

Hygiene

Fines and costs of over £20k have been awarded against a company

found in breach of meat hygiene regulations. The FSA won a case against

a meat company that had failed to make sure meat was kept chilled

throughout the entire food chain.

Following this conviction, the Old Bailey judge has now announced a

sentence against the company of fines and costs amounting to £23,000
